Clinic Spotlight: Dechra Topical Product Range

With antimicrobial resistance on the rise, topical therapy is playing an increasingly important role in managing skin conditions. Applying treatment directly to the affected area not only helps reduce systemic antimicrobial use but also supports faster recovery and better outcomes.

The Dechra topical product range offers targeted solutions for a variety of skin concerns, from minor infections to chronic conditions. These products are formulated to provide antimicrobial, antifungal, antibiofilm, and moisturizing effects - all crucial in restoring and maintaining a healthy skin barrier.

Animals with dermatologic issues often have compromised skin, which can become dry, permeable, and vulnerable to allergens and microbial overgrowth. Dechra’s formulas help soothe the skin while promoting repair and rebalancing the microbial flora. Several products in the range contain ceramides, which have been shown to support barrier function in atopic dogs.

Compliance and tailoring therapy to the individual patient are key to treatment success. The Dechra range includes a variety of formulations - shampoos, sprays, mousses, and wipes - making it easier for owners to follow through with care at home.
